Lyrics Grace VanderWaal – River

Been travellin’ these wide roads
So long
My heart’s been far from you
Ten thousand miles gone

Oh, I wanna come to and give you
Every part of me
But there’s blood on my hands
And my lips are unclean

In my darkness I remember
Momma’s words reoccur to me
«Surrender to the good Lord
And wipe your slate clean»

Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, take me to your river
I wanna go

Dip me in your smooth water
Or go in
From a man with many crimes, come up for air
As my sins flow down the Jordan

Oh, I wanna come to and give you
Every part of me
But there’s blood on my hands
And my lips are unclean

Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, take me to your river
I wanna go

Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know

Go, take me to your river
I wanna go
Lord, just please, let me know
Take me to your river
I wanna go

Go, take me to your river
I wanna go
